The method discovered by CiQUS researchers allows them to obtain well-defined nanographenes in one-pot from perylene, a very common organic compound.

Thin Film Electronics ASA a leader in the development and commercialization of printed electronics, announced a collaboration agreement with EVRYTHNG, the Web of Things software company that makes physical products smart, by connecting them to unique digital identities on the Web.

IDTechEx is launching the Wearable Technology LIVE! event on 19-20 November 2014 in Santa Clara, California. This is an international tradeshow and conference focused on wearable technologies with a particular emphasis on the critical enabling technologies that will shape the future of wearable devices.

Bpifrance, Sofimac Partners and CEA Investissement participate in ISORG financing round of 6.4M Euros ($8.7 million).

A nanoparticle ink that can be used for printing electronics without high-temperature annealing presents a possible profitable approach for manufacturing flexible electronics.

IDTechEx are hosting a free webinar.

IDTechEx recently visited Japan for the FineTech expo in Tokyo. This article summarises the latest findings and updates from Japanese companies in the field of printed electronics.

As the development of flexible displays continues, companies are starting to focus on optimizing manufacturing processes and reducing costs.

Two-dimensional sheets of electronic materials, such as graphene, show promise for practical nanoelectronics applications, including transparent electronic circuits used in electronic displays.

Graphene is gaining heated attention, dubbed a "wonder material" with great conductivity, flexibility and durability. However, graphene is hard to come by due to the fact that its manufacturing process is complicated and mass production not possible.

Scientists at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) have developed a way to print silver directly onto fibres.

IDTechEx seeks a technical, entrepreneurial candidate to help grow our coverage and presence in Japan.

Carbon nanotubes "unzipped" into graphene nanoribbons by a chemical process invented at Rice University are finding use in all kinds of projects, but Rice scientists have now found a chemical-free way to unzip them.

Remember CES back in January. There was a widespread sentiment that LG was winning the OLED TV battle against Samsung. How did LG take the lead in OLED TV? And what does it mean for the other TV panel manufacturers?

Computer simulation shows how to make a crystal that would toggle like a light switch between conductive and non-conductive structures. This could lead to flexible electronic materials and, for instance, enable a cell phone to be woven into a shirt.

Cal Poly will launch an online Printed Electronics and Functional Imaging Professional Certificate Program beginning Sept. 22.

Researchers have determined how light beams excite the chemicals in solar panels, enabling them to produce charge.

raunhofer-Gesellschaft decided to merge Fraunhofer COMEDD and Fraunhofer FEP with an aim to pool knowledge in one institution.

To coincide with Graphene Week 2014, the European Commission is proud to announce that the Graphene Flagship, one of the largest-ever European research initiatives, is doubling in size.

Flexible OLED displays have been in the making for the past several years. We have already witnessed many prototypes but the technology challenges have persisted and prevented full scale commercialisation. The technology challenges are now nearly solved and all the pieces of the puzzle are coming together. Already, we have seen mass manufactured mobiles phones on plastic substrates as well as examples of commercial curved (not yet fully flexible) displays.
